I haven't made jambalaya in a long time. Need to put that on the list. Already knocked out my chicken andouille gumbo recently. Wouldn't mind making seafood gumbo, but fucking crab and crawfish prices are stupid high right now.

I'm sure I've had tritip in my life, but it wasn't anything I remembered. Bought a tritip back when people were talking about it and have had it dry aging in my fridge since then. Trimmed it up and pan seared it today, ended up being about 12 mins in the oven to get it to rare. Normally I think dry aging only moderately improves flavor, but with the tri tip it was something else. The beef flavor was off the charts. It was probably the meatiest beefiest tasting steak I've ever had. I cut off a small part of it to eat without dry aging just because the steak was too big for what I wanted and the difference was mind blowing.
I made a light diane sauce that complemented it perfectly. One of my best steak experiences in a long while, recommend. This was actually my first time dry aging something so long, I regularly do 2-3 days just because it sears better. I have to wonder if the pre-dry aged steaks I've bought were scams or poorly done. My first time questioning central market.

The only crawfish I normally eat are boiled and they are bought fresh/live coming from the spillway. Too early for that. Easter is the big one normally and then onward. During low water/drought a few years ago it was a huge no go. Fresh when you buy it by the sack from a guys truck who just drove in from the spillway less than a hour away. Damn now I'm crawfish hungry.

I'm talking the one lb bag of frozen tails I typically add to my seafood gumbo. Used to be 7-8 now it's like 18.
I know season is coming up, and hopefully it's a decent harvest so the damn prices might be more palatable.

you want a clay/earthenware kind? i'd say your best bet is to see your local asian grocer. otherwise you can just use a camping butane stove and a regular pot, thats what we used to use for hotpot.
or you can buy a purpose split hotpot, to have 1 spicy and 1 mild side
of course you can just do what we did and just have 2 regular pots going w/ 2 butane stoves. butane is cheat and the stoves are like 20bucks, you can also find all this at an asian grocer

Yeah I want a clay one. Maybe I'll hop into H mart next time I'm in the office and see what they have. I was looking at them online but most tell measurements but I wish they would show something in the photos so you could better see comparable sizes. I guess it's just something I should get in person.

Did a pork butt last weekend and a combo of collards, cabbage, and black eyed peas for our late New Year's meal. Turned out pretty good, especially since I pulled some quail out of the freezer. Also don't care for spaghetti pulled pork, when it gets cooked down too much it just becomes mush in your mouth. I like to be able to slice it or dice it. This was perfectly tender and still had that meaty texture.
Made it for my wife's birthday, because it's one of her favorite things that I cook.

If it's as cold as they say it's going to be for as long it's going to push the season back. Of course forecast are always wrong. Plenty of water this year though.

Sometimes I wish I could afford to just buy you as an indentured house servant. I think I'm only ever going to get invested in more time consuming cooking when I hopefully retire early at some point. (This year didnt quite pan out)
Looking for ideas to use a fair amount of honey and not just waste it where you don't taste it, or a lot gets left behind. We have local small keeper honey that I'd like to eat faster than a teaspoon on a biscuit. Best idea so far is maybe just trying to do french toast with it. I dont have inclination to try and make baklava. I've never cared for honey in my coffee/tea seems to not mix in completely and doesn't taste as sweet.

Dude, it's taken decades of trial and error, but cooking is definitely a hobby, and it's probably due to where I grew up and my general family on my mom's side. Dad's side, not so much, but the other side just appreciates good family meals, and taking the time to cook for everyone something tasty. Lot of it was probably my grandmother on the dairy farm. Just have a lot of good memories with my family cooking a feast or going out to a nice restaurant.
Even back in college I was throwing BBQs for my buddies, especially during summer. Most weekends I would ride back to my parents ranch on Sunday and cook dinner because they were only 45 minutes or so away. I know it's corny, but good food really does bring folks together, even if it's something simple like burgers and brats.
For the honey, there's probably some sort of candy you could make, but I don't know much about confectioning. You could probably make some sort of brittle or taffy type deal, like that old candy bar Bit-O-Honey. Toss in some roasted peanuts, and that might be a winner.
Other option would maybe be baking some sort of cake or short bread maybe.

Lies and slander!
I just don't like having to fry, but when I do, I'm in it to win it. Oil is just stupid expensive now, as is catfish, which we used to fry a few times a year with shrimp , mushrooms, pickles, okra, etc.
And wtf, I make Oriental at least every other month in my amazing cast iron wok.
